Oh my God you guys…literally delivered to me a box of cinnamon sticks with NO cinnamon on it whatsoever. Just bread. ???? I can’t make this up. I had to laugh out loud at the ridiculousness. Someone must be truly out of their mind to let that pass a quality check, or just someone didn’t really care. Either way mind boggling.

So sad, the store is empty 5 employees working Tonya the manager on duty will not make a simple customer accommodation because she was going to have to do it herself. I love Papa Gino’s sad I have to do this but hey if you don’t like your job in customer service quit! Do whatever makes you happy. Very unhappy mind you I came from Florida to eat here.

Hands Down the BEST pizza. But that’s not the only reason why I give Papa Ginos 5 stars. As a local New Englander, I respect local businesses that give back. Papa Ginos is not just the best spot for food…they also care. From the Management all the way down to the Kitchen Crew, I have always been impressed with the high level of customer service at the individual and community level.

I just stopped in for a snack and ordered the wings with sauce on the side. I’m always a bit worried about how wings will come out, as I don’t like “soggy” textured wings, but these were well done and tasty. I’ll try some more food when I’m back in the area.

I had the buffalo chicken pizza at Papa Gino’s and it was incredible! The crust was crispy and the buffalo sauce was just the right amount of spicy. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the blue cheese dressing on top was a nice touch. I highly recommend this pizza!

Can’t seem to order Anything right, if you call and ask for two large cheese and one large onion and pepper and one large pepperoni they will assume you ment just two pizza one with onion and pepper and one with just pepperoni, and if you try and use the app some how there’s a option for no cheese, why and how this is even a option idk. Maybe that should be on a special request. Nothing worse then spending over a hundred dollars on pizza and getting it home for the Bruins game to find out the three cheese pizzas have NO CHEESE ON THEM, and to call the Hyde Park store and question why and the only response was” it ain’t my fault you ordered it that way”, just like it was my fault when I ordered four pizzas and only got two, but what ever, the manger told me the GM would call me the following day at 10:30am (Tuesday) No phone call? I guess I wouldn’t call either if I knew it was my apps fault and not the customers fault. Thanks for all my years of loyal service to be just blown off and thank your HP manager for not following thru. Shame!!

Terrible experience at the Papa Gino’s River Street, Hyde Park, MA location. Went in with a friend and ordered 2 small peperoni pizza’s for lunch and 2 large for kids at home. The pizza’s were not cooked enough, plus the pizza had a rancid taste to it. Not sure if they left pepperoni out all night or the oil was bad. Either way I would avoid this location for pizza. Extremely disappointed in Papa Gino’s food control as they are usually good for a quick on the go meal. I will never return to this chain again for pizza. Simply awful…

The service I received a few days ago in the 2nd of June was top notch. They understood my order and executed it perfectly. I didn’t even have to go up and grab my food myself. This Papa Gino’s has some of the most helpful and friendly staff. The food is excellent and brings me back to my childhood. Matter of fact, I’m going back today! You should too.
